My personal very favorite, purple microdot. Those were the days, never to be repeated. So many of us are dead.

[@desertswo]

A lot of people don't realize what a great guitarist Steve is because they've got visions of him at 15 sitting at that B-3 singing "I'm A Man" or whatever, but man he has some scary chops on the six-string. I've been a huge fan of Clapton for more than 40 years, but I saw their tour together in 2009 and Steve gave as good as he got when he and Eric traded riffs. A true wild talent. His kind don't come along very often.

[@jscotthales]

Also an amazing songwriter and singer, too, obviously!

[@billgaudio5436]

Totally agree....known as a keyboardist but a GREAT guitar player

Oh I agree 100% I saw them together and noticed the same thing. On another note it’s sad as hell seeing Jerry Garcia in this condition. He was such a special musician in his prime. Heroin is evil.

Spencer Davis Group, Blind Faith, Traffic... Steve Winwood goes all the way back to 1963 when he was a Lad of 15 years. Seeing him on stage with Jerry just plain rocks my world! RIP-Jerry

[@jackiewilliams4703]

Absolutely. I love all of those groups. I love jerry as well as The Grateful Dead. I most certainly hope that Jerry is resting in peace.

Has Clapton ever shared a stage with Garcia? Their very different players with very different styles. I'd like to hear how they blend.. If anybody knows of a KZbin vid with Clapton and Garcia together, please message me. I haven't located one.

Jerry certainly added flair to one of the sweetest songs to come from that era...and to last well into today.

Their last song was You Can All Join In. EVERYBODY was on their feet despite how hot it was! This was taped later during Garcia's set. Steve Winwood came out to sing this with Garcia's band. People went nuts during the last part of this song. It was fabulous!

An excellent version if there ever was one. I remember the GD killing it on Dear Mr Fantasy in Hampton spring tour 87. Its nice to see Jer killing it 7 years later and a year before he died. I love how they close the song Traffic style.

I honestly thought the Avetts had a shot at becoming a touring force not fully like the Dead but as close as any other band could get- then they done F’d up and signed w/ Rubin now the entire fan base has become VERY wealthy white folk and that’s it- pre Carpenter their shows had a vibe that put me close to where these ones did- but it was the people, sadly like myself we all tossed the koolaid and moved on- they’re special but lost my respect by selling out

[@iamkenman101]

I'm a big Dead fan and I've seen them and Ive seen them a couple dozen times. Never had the change to see Winwood. That being said, I prefer Winwood's guitar playing over Jerry's. Jerry Garcia used heavily modified custom guitars, tone of effects (including a guitar synth, but his tone was almost always the same. Jerry played a lot of quick 1/16th notes and 1/8 notes and his solos were way too monotonous.

[@Tommy2shoe811]

+Led ZeppelinFan I agree with the Jerry critique but you gotta realize he was in the end days of a brutal disease so you can't really judge based on this performance or those from really any of the 90's. If you want to see true greatness check out the Dead's performance of Morning Dew from Cornell '77. True masterpiece. It'll make the hair on the back of your neck stand up

[@courtneyburgess4625]

chais jo that's what I always thought. Especially when Brent would sing it as he stares at Jerry!! Love it

[@TIMSTRUMENT]

Yeah he had bad carparal tunnel and diabetes and a heart condition,he did do a lot of shredding that weekend The grateful dead is just an awesome thing to do

[@duaneburgess7855]

Brent Mydland still rocks it best. I rarely say that beyond an original song/original artist but he did.

[@tomquinn5683]

Brent was a tortured spirit who is sorely missed. I think the combination of his passing and the car bomb in the parking lot were too much for Jerry. And for the record,you are 100% Correct.

[@kevinpackard]

Someone posted that this concert was in Vegas, July '94. If so, I was there! SO bitter-sweet listening to The Dead. In 1994, I thought I knew exactly who I was and where I was going. Career on track. Steady GF of 6 years. Great friends. Not a care in the world. We hit every Dead show within 500 miles of Los Angeles in my VW bus. One year later my career was in shambles, GF gone, and Jerry was gone. It took 6 months of bumming around Europe before I took some personal stock. I came back to the U.S., resurrected my career, met the love of my life, and started a family. But I will always associate the music of Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead with that joyful and carefree period in my life. Thanks for posting.
